Caregiving involves caring for others, giving our time, pushing ourselves to the limit, advocating, learning and loving.
Five caregivers got together to share their collective wisdom with other... More > caregivers. We all started knowing just about nothing about caregiving but we learned “on the job” and by talking, laughing, crying and sharing with each other.
365 Caregiving Tips: Practical Tips from Everyday Caregivers is the beginning of a series of books created with the intent of helping others through their caregiving journey. The tips are practical because as caregivers, we have to be practical.
Our hope is that by sharing these tips in this calendar and the beautiful artwork by Pegi Foulkrod your caregiving day will be easier and your load a little lighter.
Know there are others on this caregiving journey with you and we are here to help.

For family caregivers of persons with chronic illnesses, the day can be too full of worries, laundry, hands-on care and medications. It definitely can be an unhappy situation.
But, can it be a... More > happier one?
In this workbook, we're setting out to find out: Can we increase happiness during a difficult time in life?
Each month, you'll set goals based on one word: Plan, Replace, Space, Join, Resolve, Let Go, Quiet, Teach, Learn, Rejoice, Save, Say. You can set one goal or more, but try to keep within three goals. You'll keep progress of how well you're doing with the goal(s) and reflect on what's going well. At the end of each month, we hope an effective action becomes a helpful habit.
Why not ask others to join you? Companionship on the journey helps you stay on your road to more happiness. Invite your friends, family members and support group members.
